Is there any chance that the startron helps with performance? Seems a little peppier today?

Re: [diesel_mercedes] W123 Rear Axle Assemblies

 

You should get the Haynes manual for these cars, its very helpful and has a good section on rear axles. Now the rear wheel bearings are a whole other deal, not so easy. Max

Just stuff the new axles in.I've replaced all four of mine, not hard at all.You do have to open up the rear differential to push off the u clips on the  ends, watch for a shim. Look up a U-tube video. Max

Can anyone on this list clarify the evolution of the rear axle assemblies for the W123 chassis cars?  I am restoring a 1982 240D with 361,000 miles on it.  Rear axles work ok, no clunking, but the boots are rotted.  The car has the bolted type inner section.  I have ordered and received replacement axles; I received the crimped can type.  Looking around the web, it looks like the bolted type is the older style and the crimped can type is the newer style, both equally usable.  But it also looks like the newer can type might require different seals where the inner spline connects to the differential, and different wheel hub bolts where the outer section connects to the wheel hub.  I could use some help understanding what I need to do.
 
Thanks,
